[edit] Clifford Chance Sculpture Award

Clifford Chance Sculpture Award (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Prod was removed. Non notable university award. NAHID 10:30, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete or Merge: The award is definitely not notable enough to deserve its own article as there is not much information on it to write an accurate article. If possible, it might be appropriate to merge the article into an article for the University that give the award. Otherwise, it should be deleted.

  • Delete Non-notable. J.delanoygabsadds 02:27, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  • DO NOT Delete: There is little written about this award because it is in its infancy - It was only this year that the Award Became a public exhibition - but the Award brings together the University of the Arts London - which is Europe's largest centre for education in art communication and design, and Clifford Chance which is the largest Law Firm in the World. It is notable.
  • Delete: Wikipedia does not allow advertising, which includes press releases or profile-boosting for even laudable and worthy subjects. Instead, it is a tertiary source of information and relies solely upon, basically, everyone else having noted something first. Utgard Loki (talk) 13:34, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom and Utgard Loki. WP is not a listing of various awards, no matter how nice. Bearian'sBooties (talk) 03:06, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
P.S. Notability is not inherited from the sponsor of an award. Bearian'sBooties (talk) 03:07, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep - It is a minor award, but it is an award. I suspect that the prize of £3000 is a very helpful start in life to a new graduate in fine art, a group who are not usually rich. This is a harmless little page. We do not now allow categories for awards, so that lists of winners ought to be. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Peterkingiron (talk • contribs) 20:17, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep This small article represents what is a young but very important award for emerging artists in the UK. It is notable and should definitly NOT be deleted or merged.Comet000 (talk) 12:52, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep This article will be informative to a group of emerging artists who are very much in need of information about award schemes such as this. This article shouldn't be treated as advertising, but as a valuable educational resource for early career artists looking for exposure and support. Additional information about the scheme would be useful. jeremyhutchison, 22:26 26th february 2008 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeremyhutchison (talk • contribs) 22:27, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
